Making New Family Traditions

This year we decided we would start a new tradition for Thanksgiving and make a family hand turkey.  We had so much fun working on this simple craft together, and the kids got a kick out of the fact that Daddy's hand barely fit on a piece of construction paper!  :o)  I want to laminate it so that it will last through the years, and we hope to make one each year, showing how our family has grown -- both individually and with each new little addition!

Daddy's hand is in the back in dark blue, Mommy's is red, Abby's is orange, Corbin's is light blue, and Daniel's is green.  If anybody has any ideas for how we can include Samuel (and any other additions that are in utero for future hand turkeys), we'd love to hear them!
(I used paint.net to color out our last name -- just in case you were wondering why all the blank spots).

I pray everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving, filled with family, fun, and food; but most importantly, filled with a sense of thankfulness and awe at all our Great Provider has done for us!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!
